Who place on Sion's GOD their Trust

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CXXV (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 Who place on Sion's God their Trust, Like Sion's lofty Rock shall stand; Like her, immoveable be fix'd, Establish'd by his mighty Hand: Whose strong Foundations stand secure, And shall for evermore endure. 2 Look how the Hills on ev'ry Side The fair Jerusalem inclose; So stands the LORD around his Saints, To guard them from their Foes: He shall their strong Protector be, And from all Danger set them free. 3 The Wicked may afflict the Just, But they shall not too long oppress, Or force him by Despair to seek Unrighteous Means for his Redress; For GOD, who still remains his Friend, From Heav'n shall speedy Succour send. 4 Do good, O righteous GOD, to those, Who do in Goodness take Delight; The Heart that Innocence retains, To those thy choicest Blessings give, Whose Hearts before thee are upright: The LORD the Wicked shall destroy, But crown his Saints with Peace and Joy. Scripture: Psalm 125 Languages: English Tune Title: [Who place on Sion's God their Trust]

With ever restless, and ungovern'd Rage

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 With ever restless, and ungover'd Rage, Why are the Heathen ill Designs contriving? Why thus in rash and vain Attempts engage, Which they can ne'er complete, tho; boldly striving? The earnly Kings, in council close combined, Their utmost Pow'r, their various Forces bring; In Union join'd, in compact all designed, Against the LORD, and his anointed King. 2 "Must we submit," presumptuously they say, "And yield, obedient, whilst they keep us under? "No, let us cast their slavish Bands away. "Shake off their Chains, and break their Cords asunder.' But on his Throne the LORD in Glory seated, Knows their Intent, and sees how they combine; And while their bold Attempts are all defeated, Laughs them to Scorn, and mocks their vain Design. 3 His waken'd Wrath shall shake his guilty Foes, In great Displeasure he shall sore distress them; And thus while yet they dare hi Will oppose, The LORD himself in Thunder shall address them; "Tho' madly thus you have my Pow'r disowned, "Yet be assur'd, the King whom I ordain, "On Sion’s holy Hill shall sit enthroned, "And there securely shall for ever reign." 4 Let all attend and hear GOD's fixt Decree On which he made to me this Declaration, “Thou art my Son, I have begotten thee "This Day, be Sov'regin LORD of ev'ry Nation; “Ask, and receive, 'tis yielded to thy Pleasure; "The Heathen thine Inheritance shall be; "Lands far remote, whose Limits know no Measure, "Shall be eternally posses'd by thee. 5 "Thy awful threatning Sceptte thou shalt shake "O'er all the guilty Foes, and keep them under; "Just as the massy Bars of Iron break "The Potter’s weak and brittle Ware asunder." Learn then, ye Princes, hear with due Attention, And be ye wise, ye judges of the Earth; His sacred Name with humble Rev'rence mention, And joy before him with a godly Mirth. 6 Before the Son bow down with due Respect, Strive to appease him by a low Submission, Lest he in Wrath revenge the bold Neglect, And doom you, helpless, to a swift Perdition. If but in Part, his Anger be inflamed, What Mortal can the fatal stroke withstand? He soon shall see his daring Foes ashamed, And crush'd at once by his Almighty Hand. 7 Then blest are they, who on our GOD rely, With constant Hope on his strong Arm depending, Who humbly strive to serve the LORD most high, With grateful Hearts and Fervour never ending. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English Tune Title: [With ever restless and ungoverned rage]

With joint Consent let all the World attend

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XLIX (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 With joint Consent let all the World attend, And let my Precepts in their Hearts descend, Let high and low, and rich and poor, give Ear, And my Instructions with Attention hear: My Mouth supply'd with Wisdom from my Heart, Shall sacred Oracles to you impart; The sound Result of prudent Contemplation And Thoughts digested for your Information. 2 Mine Ear I will to Parables incline; Whilst to my Harp I sing the deep Design. In dang'rous Times why should my courage fail, Tho' wicked Men against me would prevail: Those Men, who all their Hope in Treasure place, And boast to see their ill-got Wealth increase, Cannot from Death, their Dearest Friend deliver. Or change the Will of GOD; that's fix'd forever. 3 In this, their vain Endeavours they must quit, The Mark is far too high for them to hit; No Sums of Wealth a Grant so large can buy; That Man, by Nature mortal, should not die; No Wisdom can secure the Wise from Death, Nor Fools by Folly stay their fleeting Breath; But both must fall, their Wealth must be resigned, And in the Grave their mould'ring Dust confined. 4 For tho' they think their Names will have no End, But unto distant Ages shall extend; That all their stately Seats shall still endure, And that their Lands and Treasures are secure: Yet shall they fall, how great so e'er their State, And with the Beasts shall meet one common Fate; Their transient Glory shall be disrespected, Their Memory forgot, and quite neglected. But their Remembrance last in lands Part II 5 How greatly then, their Folly's, to be blam'd Who walk in Error ever unreclaim'd; Whose Children still repeat repeat their gross Mistake, And like their Sires, absurd Conclusions make; They all like Sheep, when to the Slaughter led, The Prey of all devouring Death are made: Their Beauty (whilst the Righteous are protected,) Within the dreary Tomb shall be neglected. 6 But GOD shall snatch me from th'expecting Grave, And shall my Soul unto himself receive: Then fear not thou, tho' worldly Men abound, In envy'd Wealth, and are with Honour crown'd; Nor let their prosp'rous State disturb thy Peace, Altho' their large Possessions still encrease; For when they die, their Wealth must be resigned, And all their Glory in the Grave confined. 7 And yet, enticed in the Flatt'rers Snare, They tho't their State was blest, and took no Care; Their Fathers Steps they tread, and when they die, In endless Darkness, like their Father lie; For Man, how great so-e'er his State may be, Unless he walks from Vice and Folly free, As like a Beast, he hath his Life directed, So shall he perish like a Beast neglected. Scripture: Psalm 49 Languages: English Tune Title: [With joint Consent let all the World attend]

Autumn, or the harvest is the end of the world

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns #CCCXIII (1802) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Day of Judgment First Line: See how brown autumn spreads the field Lyrics: 1 See how brown autumn spreads the field; Mark how the whit'ning hills are turn'd; Behold them to the reapers yield, The wheat is sav'd, the tares are burn'd. 2 Thus the great Judge with glory crown'd, Descends to reap the ripen'd earth; Angelic guards attend him down, The same who sang his humble birth. 3 In sounds of glory, hear him speak; "Go search around the flaming world, Haste, call my saints, to rise and take The seats from which their foes were hurl'd. 4 "Go burn the chaff in endless fire, In flames unquench'd consume each tare; Sinners must feel my holy ire, And sink in guilt to deep despair." 5 Thus ends the harvest of the earth, Angels obey the awful voice: They save the wheat and burn the chaff, All heav'n approves the sov'reign choice.

Now to the Lord, that makes us know

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.LXI (1766) Topics: Day of Judgment Lyrics: 1 Now to the Lord, that makes us know The Wonders of his dying Love, Be humble Honours paid below, And Strains of nobler Praise above. 2 'Twas he that cleans'd our foulest Sins, And wash'd us in his richest Blood; 'Tis he that makes us Priests and Kings, And brings us, Rebels, near to God. 3 To Jesus, our Atoning Priest, To Jesus, our Superior King, Be everlasting Pow'r confess'd, And ev'ry Tongue his Glory sing. 4 Behold, on flying Clouds he comes, And ev'ry Eye shall see him move; Though with our Sins we pierc'd Him once; Then he displays his pard'ning Love. 5 The unbelieving World shall wail, While we rejoice to see the Day, Come, Lord; nor let thy Promise fail, Nor let thy Chariots long delay.

Deceiv'd by subtil Snares of Hell

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CVII (1766) Topics: Hell and Judgment Lyrics: 1 Deceiv'd by subtil Snares of Hell, Adam, our Head, our Father fell, When Satan, in the Serpent hid, Propos'd the Fruit that God forbid. 2 Death was the Threat'ning; Death began To take Possession of the Man; His unborn Race receiv'd the Wound, And heavy Curses smote the Ground. 3 But Satan found a worse Reward; Thus saith the Vengeance of the Lord Let everlasting Hatred be Betwixt the Woman's Seed and Thee. 4 The Woman's Seed shall be my Son, He shall destroy what thou hast done; Shall break thy Head, and only feel Thy Malice raging at his Heel. [5 He spake; and bid Four Thousand Years Roll on; at length his Son appears: Angels with Joy descend to Earth, And sing the young Redeemer's Birth. 6 Lo, by the Sons of Hell he dies; But as he hung 'twixt Earth and skies, He gave their Prince a fatal Blow, And triumph'd o'er the Pow'rs below.] Scripture: Genesis 3:1 Languages: English

My Soul for Help on GOD relies

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 My Soul for Help on GOD relies, On GOD, who daily Strength supplies. To his blest Will I am resigned; From Him alone my Courage flows, To bear the Shock of all my Foes, When they against me are combined. 2 How long will ye my Fall contrive? How long will ye against me strive, And hasten on your own unding? You'll totter like a bending Wall, Like uncemented Stones shall fall, And lie involv'd in sudden Ruin. 3 They daily Lies against me frame, With Falshoods wound my spotless Name, In secret still my Fall designing: They strive to make my Honours less, Though with their Mouths they seem to bless, Their hearts to Curses are inclining. 4 But thou, my Soul, on GOD rely, Who does continual Strength supply; To his blest Will be thou resigned: From him alone my Courage flows, To bear the Shock of all my Foes, When they against me are combined. Part II 5 GOD does His saving Health dispense, He is my Fortress and Defence; My Soul on him alone depending: In him ye People always trust, For GOD, the merciful and just, His timely Aid is ever sending. 6 The Vulgar fickle are and frail; The great Ones oft in Judgment fail, Or else are treach'rously betraying: If in the Scale of Truth they're laid, 'Tis seen how lightly both are made, The smallest Trifles them outweighing. 7 Then trust not in oppressive Ways, Nor strive by lawless Force to raise, Your growing Heaps of ill-got Treasure: By Spoil and Rapine grow not vain, Nor let your Hearts on worldly Gain, Be fixt with such Delight and Pleasure. 8 For GOD has oft his Will express'd, And is of boundless Pow'r possess'd; In him are Grace and Truth united: Belongs, of Right, to God alone. Though Mercy is his Works takes Place, Yet for their Deeds, the human Race, Shall by his Justice be requited. Scripture: Psalm 62 Languages: English Tune Title: [My soul for help on God relies]

To thee, O GOD, we render Praise

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXXV (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 To thee, O GOD, we render Praise, To thee with daily Thanks repair; For that thy Name to us is nigh, Thy great and wond'rous Works declare. For thou, O LORD, art still the same, And very glorious is thy Name. 2 In Israel when my Throne is fix'd, With me shall Truth and Justice reign; The Land with Discord shakes, but I The falling Pillars will sustain. To Fools, I said, your Wrongs redress, To wicked Men, your Pride suppress. 3 For that Promotion which to gain, Your vain Ambition daily strives; From neither East, nor West, nor North, Nor yet from Southern Climes arrives. For GOD will cast the Haughty down, And lift the Humble to a Throne. 4 His Hand holds forth a dreadful Cup, With purple Wine full mix'd 'tis crown'd, The deadly Potion which his Wrath, Shall pour upon the Nations round, Its bitter Dregs shalt sinners squeeze, And drink up all the deadly Lees. 5 But I will talk of Jacob's GOD, And to the World his Pow'r relate; His Justice, Truth and Mercy too, My song shall ever celebrate; The Wicked shall before him fly, The Just shall be exalted high.
